Protected cell performing hyperlink

[SAP PoD]

Hi,

I have a protected sheet, with a few unprotected cells. One of th
cells (say, E6) has a simple hyperlink back to Sheet1. My problem i
that when a protected cell is selected, it executes whatever hyperlin
is in E6.

I have tried working round the problem by making the hyperlink in E
point back to it's own worksheet and creating another hyperlin
elsewhere to return to Sheet1 (which is a Return to Main men
function). Same problem occurs, which seems a little odd to me.

I have also tried unprotecting A1 (and testing with a dummy hyperlink
as I read somewhere that it may be jumping to the first unprotecte
cell. Same problem.

Any ideas

Well yes, I can help (but it doesn't help me )

Highlight your 2 columns, Format Cells, Protection tab. Take out th
Locked check box.

Then Tools -> Protect Sheet and enter a password for the now Unlocke
cell
